I have heard that 2x4's get stuck on the road at red lights....you might wanna convert it to 4x4. I think all you need is a new button that says 4x4. Shoule be an easy install.

Silly rabbit I just answered this in a post on this page but, yes its possible, yes its easy, no you won't be the first, and truck frames were long to support that silly old bed which was meant to carry payloads.
